Chapter nine.
"Here come the Hufflepuff team!" called Lockie Scott into the megaphone, who was commentating the match, the opponent team ran out from their changing room, "Edie Jones, Kevin Fret and Valerie Synch as the wonderful chasers! Your beaters, Jilly Little and Sammy West. The keeper Corey George and the Hufflepuff captain and seeker, Amos Diggory!"
The crowd applauded as they assembled on the pitch, "And please welcome the awesome Gryffindor team!" the applause became louder as the team ran out; they were obviously more popular than the Hufflepuffs.
"Here come the Beaters Sirius Black and Mike Leron, keeper, Halle Rodgers. Your chasers, Kat Ann, John Tucker and your captain James Potter!" Lily jogged out nervously, clutching James' broom, as the crowds erupted into raucous applause; she knew James was right beside her, under the invisibility cloak, 'Wave.' He told her, Lily raised James' arm and waved to the crowd, "And finally the brilliant seeker Ellie Andrews." Lockie finished.
"Now I want a nice, clean match." Madame Ekles said firmly, "Captains, shake hands."
Lily shook hands with Diggory, "Good luck." She said, as he gave her a weird look.
"Why'd you say that?" James asked, he had never wished the opponent good luck,
"I was being nice." She snapped back, "Come on, we have to play now."
Madame Ekles blew her whistle loudly and they were off. Lily kicked off the ground hard, for a minute or two she was unsteady on the broom, and from under his cloak James could see that,
"Lils, relax." He said kindly, squeezing her hand gently, sending a shiver up her arm.
"Okay," she said nervously, she had no idea where he was but she didn't mind, as long as he was there.
"Come on, you gotta get up there." James said, Lily felt a breeze rush over her, showing that James had flown up higher, so she shakily flew up after him, she hated going so high, but she knew she had to.
"James!" called a voice, it was Kat, and Lily turned around and caught the quaffle, which had been hurtling towards her, she had just managed to catch it, almost being knocked off the broom.
"Good catch, and remember to be alert." James whispered in her ear as Lily threw the ball to Mike Tucker,
"I am being alert, I just wasn't ready for that." She said, she was getting the hang of flying fast, but she couldn't bear looking down, she had a terrible fear of heights. Lily flew closer to the hoop and received the quaffle from Mike, she chucked it through one of the hoops, the keeper almost saved it, and she had scored the first goal.
"10 points to Gryffindor! Scored by our very own captain James Potter!" Lockie's voice echoed throughout the stadium.
The game went on, Gryffindor scored another 30 points, but Lily was finding it hard to concentrate. It had started raining and it was hard for her to see through James' glasses,
"Come on Lils, keep going." James said encouragingly,
"Just shut up Potter! Go away!" she snapped viciously, and flew away very fast; James was having trouble keeping up with her, seeing as he was riding one of the old school brooms. James located Ellie as Hufflepuff scored another goal, making the score 70-40 to Hufflepuff. He flew along side her and whispered,
"Oi Ellie, it's me, James."
"James? Why aren't you with Lily?" Ellie asked worriedly, as she pretended to be looking for the snitch, Amos Diggory was a hopeless seeker, so it didn't really matter that she wasn't doing much.
"She told me to leave her, so I did. She's in a bad mood. Can you start looking for the snitch? We need to end this game, soon, Lily can't concentrate properly in this rain." He said urgently,
"Okay, I'll find it, but you need to go back to her now though."
"Alright." James said, gliding away and back to Lily.
"Another ten points to Gryffindor scored by Katherine Ann!" Lockie called,
"Good shot Kat!" Lily called, even though James hadn't told her to say that,
"Hey Lils, I told Ellie to start looking for the snitch." James said
"And I told you to leave me alone." She hissed, she was getting so annoyed about having to do everything that James said,
"Lily, you don't know the rules of this game that well, I'm trying to help you." James said, trying to be patient, it was getting very hard,
"James just go away!" she said, pushing him away from her,
"Oh my god!" James yelled, as his broom wobbled. Lily's watch was caught on the invisibility cloak; James fell off the old broom, coming into full view, he hurtled towards the ground as Lockie called, "Ellie Andrews has caught the snitch! Gryffindor wins 200-70!"
Ellie was grinning widely as she waved the snitch around, but her grin was wiped from her face when she saw Lily's body hit the ground with a thud.
Lily stuffed the invisibility cloak inside her robes and flew quickly down towards where her body was laying, crumpled on the floor. Her heart was pounding rapidly as she landed softy on the ground next to herself. Ellie soon joined her with a worried look on her face.
